Baishixian Road

Chapter 273

The room was cold and dark.

There are almost no street lights outside this community, so we can't count on the light from outside.

Xu Mo took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight. Of course, in order to prevent people outside from seeing the light, he covered it with his hand and kept it as low as possible.

The musty smell in the room was stronger, even a little choking.

Xu Mo looked around, there was a little bit here, but the light couldn't be turned on, the reason was the same, he couldn't be found, otherwise, he really couldn't tell.

Next, he began to investigate carefully, not letting go of any details and corners.

It's just that after half an hour of searching, I didn't find anything valuable in the living room. They were all everyday things. In the drawer, there were only some receipts and some medicines.

Xu Mo felt that the focus should be on that bedroom.

After all, the figure he saw during the day appeared in the bedroom.

This is a two-bedroom house, actually there are two bedrooms.

One has a double bed and is on the sunny side, and the other has a single bed and is on the shade side.

The figure Xu Mo saw today was in the single bed room, which should be Zheng Chao's room.

After entering, I still rummaged around.

There were not many clothes in the wardrobe, so I touched the clothes one by one, and found a receipt from a pocket of the clothes.

Bill again.

I've found quite a few of these before.

After a closer look, it was a ticket stub for a tourist scenic spot. This scenic spot is very famous, and Xu Mo also knows that it is a legendary Taoist ancestral home.

Xu Mo suddenly remembered something, went out and took out the previous few ticket stubs.

I found that apart from some utility bill receipts, the most common ones are the ticket stubs of some scenic spots.

Basically, it's all about Taoism.

Either the mountain or the view.

Look at the date.

There are actually several kinds in the first few months or two months.

"For the past two months, he didn't go anywhere, so he went on a trip?" Xu Mo guessed wildly.

Why do I go to places that are related to Taoism?

Of course, Zheng Chao is interested in Taoism, and Xu Mo knows this, because in that weird world, it is the Sanqing Dajiao founded by Zheng Chao.

The Great Religion of the Three Purities is actually based on Taoism in this world.

Many settings are the same.

Only those who are more interested in this aspect will study this and know so much.

Therefore, it is not surprising to see a lot of Daoist scriptures in the bookcase just now.

"Then, Zheng Chao went to some Taoist places so concentratedly, did he travel before or after?" Xu Mo didn't know when the other party did the time travel.

But it is basically certain that the situation is similar to myself.

That is to say, no matter how long you have been in that world, for this side, it is only a moment.

But this moment is enough to change a person.

Xu Mo felt that he must be different from before.

There are too many differences, just to give an example, in the past, he would not have dared to respond to the vice president of the company, but now, hehe, he loves so and so.

Apart from these things, Xu Mo found no valuable clues.

Of course, no photos were found either.

This is very strange. In ordinary families, there must be pictures or hanging pictures, and judging from the traces on some walls, there must have been there before.

It was only taken down later.

why?
Xu Mo didn't understand.

And he soon discovered another very strange thing.

"Why no mirror?"

Xu Mo did not find any mirrors here from beginning to end, not even in the bathroom.

"Aren't mirrors and photos standard at home?"

This thing is so weird.

At this time, Xu Mo suddenly had a bold idea.

"I can't find their photos, but I can find a mirror."

Once the thought comes together, it cannot be held back.

have to do.

Do it now!

At that moment, Xu Mo tiptoed out, went downstairs, and ran all the way, but it was so late now, the store had already closed, and 24-hour convenience stores generally didn't have mirrors.

But you have to try.

Xu Mo managed to find one. Luckily, there really are. It’s just a child’s toy, a small mirror for playing house. If you want to buy it, you have to buy a set of small furniture and a small shovel. .

Now Xu Mo didn't care about so much, so he bought a set and took out the small mirror alone.

It's not big, that is, the size of an eyeglass lens, but it is probably enough.

I ran back all the way, calmed down the air downstairs, went upstairs again, and groped in quietly.

At this time, Xu Mo felt that he was baffled, because he didn't find a mirror in that house, so he ran out one kilometer to buy a mirror.

It's crazy.

Maybe people just don't like looking in mirrors.

It's weird, but not illegal.

But Xu Mo also knew that someone, maybe Zheng Chao himself, took away the photos and mirrors here, and it must not be aimless.

There must be a reason.

Now that there is a small mirror, Xu Mo is in the room, taking a picture with the mirror.

Because the mirror is small, the distance cannot be too close, otherwise there is only himself in the mirror.

Moreover, because it was too dark and the light was too dim, it was actually impossible to see anything clearly.

Xu Mo thought of a way. He put the phone in the air, with the light facing the ground, so that the outside couldn't see the light inside, and at the same time, he could see something by the light.

Hold the mirror and straighten your arms.

It's almost done this time, although the viewing angle is also very small, at least I can see some.

And in fact, Xu Mo found that he didn't need to take care of himself at all.

Because even if it is early in the morning, nothing will happen if you look in the mirror by yourself in this house.

"As expected, I'm just a pure idiot." Xu Mo was helpless, thinking what could be seen from this?Really expect to see something else?
But when Xu Mo walked to the bedroom with the mirror and turned his back to the window, he suddenly froze.

In that little cartoon mirror, it was clear that there was a man standing by the window.

Xu Mo turned back immediately.

There was nothing there, the dark neighborhood outside the dusty windows, nothing.

But looking in the mirror again, it was clearly there.

To be honest, Xu Mo was very surprised at this moment. He was stunned for more than ten seconds.

He rubbed his eyes, then closed them and muttered to himself.

"No, this is not a strange world, this is reality, and there is no such thing in reality."

Open your eyes and look again.

Gone.

It's useless to see with the eyes, and to look in the mirror.

"It really is a hallucination, let me just say, how is it possible."

Xu Mo said so, but he knew in his heart that the situation would not be so simple.

In fact, deep down in his heart, there is a strange expectation. He expects to discover some weird things through this weird, even unscientific way.

Otherwise, why did he go crazy in the middle of the night and run a kilometer away to buy a mirror?

In the middle of the night, running into an empty room and looking in the mirror is obviously not something normal humans can do.

Therefore, Xu Mo actually had psychological expectations for this weird discovery.

Even a little bit of 'joy'.

Otherwise, how to explain the fact that all the mirrors in this room were taken away?
Only then does everything make sense.

Only then can it be explained.

And the most important point is that Xu Mo has been in the weird world for a long time. He has experienced, seen, and even knows these things very well.

Because, he has also become 'they'.

After finding that the figure in the mirror was missing, Xu Mo started to look for it. Of course, he took the mirror and looked at the room in the mirror.

At this moment, he was somewhat conflicted.

I hope to find out, but I also hope not to find out.

If you really find something, it means that you don’t have a brain problem. If you don’t find anything, it means that you really have hallucinations, which is not normal, and you need to go to the hospital to see your brain.

Just as Xu Mo was concentrating on looking around, suddenly, there was a creaking sound from the door to the living room.

Xu Mo looked around and saw a figure standing over there.

"Can you see it without a mirror?" Xu Mo was stunned, but before he could react, the figure at the door let out a terrifying scream.

"Oh my dear mother, there is a ghost!"

That sound could blow the roof off.

Anyway, Xu Mo was taken aback, which was more exciting than seeing a ghost.

Because Xu Mo also recognized it at this time, and it was the aunt next door who screamed.

Immediately, voices came from the corridor. There were several uncles. After turning on the lights in the room, Xu Mo stared at them.

What happened next was no surprise at all.

Xu Mo sat in the police station, thinking about how to explain this to Officer Zhang.

Outside the room, several elders and aunts were explaining vividly, while pointing in Xu Mo's direction.

I can hear the old lady say.

"I knew that this person was abnormal, so I was careful. Sure enough, he sneaked into other people's houses at night. He must be a thief. At that time, I almost didn't scare me to death. Tell me, who is this serious person in the middle of the night? Run to other people’s houses without turning on the lights.”

That's called a rebuke.

Officer Zhang was sitting across from him at this moment, frowning and asking, "What's going on?"

Then he pointed to the small cartoon mirror on the table.

I have searched just now, and the other party did not take anything. There are some belongings in the house, but they are all left intact.

According to what the uncle and aunt said before, when they found the other party, the other party was holding a mirror and seemed to be looking for something.

But the question is, why hold a mirror?

"It's a long story to tell!" Xu Mo felt that no matter what he said, there were only two possible outcomes.

One is to think of yourself as a thief.

One is to see yourself as mentally ill.

"Actually, I'm just looking for someone..."

"Looking for someone? Take this?" Officer Zhang pointed to the small cartoon mirror.

Yes, it's really hard to explain this.

Xu Mo felt that he had to change his mind.

What he thinks now is, is this world that he should be familiar with and understands really as he understands it?

What if there is something weird here too?

Officer Zhang is a policeman, and he has been in contact with many things on weekdays. It is possible that he has seen some weird things, maybe he is a fellow.

Xu Mo suddenly thought, why didn't he tell the truth?
Of course, we don't need to mention the different world, but there is a 'ghost' in Zheng Chao's family, so there is no need to hide it.

So Xu Mo put on a very serious expression.

Seeing Xu Mo's serious expression, Officer Zhang also nodded, motioning for Xu Mo to speak.

"Officer Zhang, have you ever seen a ghost?"

"?????"

"No, what I mean is that when I was at Zheng Chao's house, I should have seen a ghost. Yes, the figure I saw during the day should be a ghost. That ghost can only be seen through a mirror. By the way, during the day When I saw it from downstairs, it was through the glass, so, that is to say, I could see it from a certain angle through the glass, hahahaha, I understand, I understand, so that’s what happened..."

Xu Mo felt that he had figured out a doubt.

That's why during the day he saw ghosts from downstairs.

Because that 'ghost' can only be viewed from a mirror, or from a certain angle through glass.

This can explain why all the mirrors in Zheng Chao's house were taken away.

"But the photo, why do you want to take it away?"

"photo?"

"Yes, the photo, Officer Zhang, do you think there are ghosts in the photo?"

"?????"

At this time, Xu Mo looked at Officer Zhang seriously, and Officer Zhang looked shocked, with one big and one small eyes, and the little policeman who was in charge of recording beside him also had a wonderful expression, very much like a 'non-still picture'.

"Ahem, Xu Mo, right?"

"Yes, my name is Xu Mo, you can call me Xiao Xu!"

"You, wait a moment!"

Officer Zhang gestured to the little policeman, and the two went outside and closed the door.

"Hurry up and call and find a doctor."

"What doctor?"

"Nonsense, of course it's psychiatric. I judge that there may be something wrong with this young man's brain..."

"You mean mental illness? No way, maybe he was talking nonsense just now."

"It's not nonsense. I have handled many cases. When a person speaks, I can tell whether he is telling the truth, serious or not. This Xu Mo did not evade his eyes when he spoke just now. He Seriously, at least, what he said just now, for himself, is a firm belief, so the matter is more troublesome, you must see a doctor."

……

"What are you doing? I'm not crazy. You call Police Officer Zhang. I told him that he knows what's going on. How many times do you have to tell me to believe me? I'm really not crazy. I."

Xu Mo tried his best to explain.

Opposite, there is a person sitting, the other person is smiling, seems to be very kind, introduced himself as a psychiatrist, said that he has been in the industry for more than ten years, he is very experienced, let Xu Mo relax, speak out what is on his mind, don't hold back with.

"Xiao Xu, don't be so contradictory. In fact, what you said before has some truth from a scientific point of view, and I believe it." The psychiatrist looked serious.

"Really?" Xu Mo was stunned this time.

"Yes, the world is so big. Human beings have only discovered a small part of everything and various elements in the world. There are still many unsolved mysteries and many places that have not been explored."

Now, Xu Mo was a little happy.

"Actually, I also thought about it. Since I came back, I really thought that there were no such weird things here. Until last night, I was sure it wasn't dazzled, I saw it."

"What did you see?" The doctor took a pen to record it calmly.

"Of course it's a ghost, but I didn't see what it looked like."

"Tell me more in detail." The doctor recorded.

Seeing the other party's actions at this time, Xu Mo thought about it and sighed.

"Say it, why don't you say it!" the doctor asked.

Xu Mo shook his head: "I don't want to talk anymore, I'm tired!"

Just now, Xu Mo really hoped that someone would believe him.

It's just that, strictly speaking, neither police officer Zhang nor the doctor is to blame for this matter. Indeed, who would believe this?
I can't talk anymore, otherwise, if I continue to chat according to the other party's routine, I will really become a 'psychotic'!
